Lessons Learned from The Mist

* Thomas Jane has nice arms.* A Supermarket is not the best place to hole up in when large beasties are roaming the landscape.* A drugstore is an even worse place.* Marcia Gay Harden deserved an Oscar.* When someone says, "There's something in the mist!" - Then, by golly there IS something in the mist.* Giant octopi do not like the taste of dry dog food.* Rednecks from Maine are basically just pussies when push comes to shove.* New York Lawyers are bound by logic, therefore they will perish.* Religious fanatics are bound by superstition, therefore they will perish.* The military will doom us all.* But ultimately, the military will save everyone.* This has got to be one of the best horror films made in a very long time.

I still haven't seen this but I really need to get off my ass and put it on my netflix already. This was one of my favorite short stories by King. I remember when I read it I said, "They need to make a movie out of this." :)

About This Blog

I love horror films, been watching them all of my life.
As a gay man, I've come to note the more homo-erotic subtext in many of these films. From the obvious in films like, Interview With the Vampire, to the more subtle in movies like, Scream.
So, what I intend to do with this blog, is, from time to time, highlight a movie that is both scary as well as sensual,(or just plain campy) provided those elements are borne of gay or lesbian sensibilities.
